First, from a set of random depth features, Random Forest is used to infer a set of label probabilities for each data sample. This vector of probabilities is used as unary term in α−β swap Graph-cuts algorithm. Moreover, depth values of spatio-temporal neighboring data points are used as boundary potentials. Results on a new multi-label human depth data set show high performance in terms of segmentation overlapping of the novel methodology compared to classical approaches. %K Multi-modal vision processing %K Random Forest %K Graph-cuts %K multi-label segmentation %K human body segmentation %U http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/files/HZM2012a.pdf %U http://dx.doi.org/10.3233/AIS-2012-0176 %P 535-546
